Compounds and methods are provided for inhibiting a PI4-kinase. Methods of treating a pathogen infection and methods of treating cancer are also provided. The PI4-kinase inhibitor can be a compound that is a 5-aryl or heteroaryl-thiazole, e.g., as described herein. In certain embodiments, the PI4-kinase inhibitor is a substituted 2-amino-5-phenylthiazole or substituted 2-amino-5-pyridylthiazole compound. In some embodiments, the compounds have broad spectrum anti-infective activity against a variety of infective diseases, where the diseases are caused by pathogens containing a basic amino acid PIP-2 pincer (BAAPP) domain that interacts with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP-2) to mediate pathogen replication. Also provided are methods of treating a subject for cancer using a PI4-kinase inhibitor. Aspects of the methods include inhibiting PI4-kinase in a cancer cell to reduce cellular proliferation.

PI4-kinase inhibitors and methods of using the same

Methods of reducing hepatitis delta virus (HDV) viral loads in a patient are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises treating the patient with lonafarnib-ritonavir co-therapy. In some embodiments, the method further comprises treating the patient with an interferon.

Treatment of hepatitis delta virus infection

Disclosed herein are methods for use of clemizole for the treatment of a subject in need thereof. Uses include methods of treating inflammatory conditions. Uses also include methods of treating non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in a subject.

Use of clemizole compounds for treatment of inflammatory conditions

Compounds and methods are provided for the treatment of pathogen infections. In some embodiments, the anti-infective compounds have broad spectrum activity against a variety of infective diseases, where the diseases are caused by pathogens containing a basic amino acid PIP-2 pincer (BAAPP) domain that interacts with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP-2) to mediate pathogen replication. Also provided are methods of inhibiting a PI4-kinase and methods of inhibiting viral infection. In some embodiments, the compound is a PI4-kinase inhibiting compound that is a 5-aryl-thiazole or a 5-heteroaryl-thiazole. The subject compounds may be formulated or provided to a subject in combination with a second anti-infective agent, e.g. interferon, ribavirin, and the like.

PI-kinase inhibitors with anti-infective activity

Methods of inhibiting influenza A virus in a sample are provided. Aspects of the methods include contacting a sample comprising viral RNA (vRNA) having a PSL2 motif with an effective amount of an agent that specifically binds the PSL2 motif to inhibit the influenza A virus. Also provided are methods of treating or preventing influenza A virus infection in a subject. Also provided are methods for screening a candidate agent for the ability to inhibit influenza A virus in a cell, the method comprising: contacting a sample with a candidate agent; and determining whether the candidate agent specifically binds to the PSL2 motif of vRNA. Also provided are compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising an oligonucleotide sequence complementary to a PB2 vRNA region that find use in the subject methods.

Pan-genotypic agents against influenza virus and methods of using the same

Compounds and methods are provided for the treatment of pathogen infections. In some embodiments, the anti-infective compounds have broad spectrum activity against a variety of infective diseases, where the diseases are caused by pathogens containing a basic amino acid PIP-2 pincer (BAAPP) domain that interacts with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP-2) to mediate pathogen replication. Also provided are methods of inhibiting a PI4-kinase and methods of inhibiting viral infection. In some embodiments, the compound is a PI4-kinase inhibiting compound that is a 5-aryl-thiazole or a 5-hetereoaryl-thiazole. The subject compounds may be formulated or provided to a subject in combination with a second anti-infective agent, e.g. interferon, ribivarin, and the like.

Disclosed herein are methods for use of R-chloroquine or clemizole or combinations of R-chloroquine and clemizole for the treatment of a subject in need thereof. Uses include methods of treating inflammatory' conditions, treating liver cancer or reducing the risk of developing liver cancer in a subject. Uses also include methods of treating non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in a subject.
